Is Jewish unity in a polarized nation possible? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At a time when most Americans have lost the ability to listen to people with opposing views on political issues, how can a fractious Jewish community that is also split on denominational lines pull together? That’s the question posed by JNS editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin. He believes that Jewish disunity has been exacerbated by the capture of the political left, which is still supported by the majority of Jews, by anti-Israel and antisemitic “progressives.” This puts even more pressure on Jewish
How Democrats will exploit the ‘settler-violence’ narrative (opens the original)

During the High Holidays, American synagogue pulpits rang out with sermons calling on Jews to hold themselves accountable for bad conduct.

That’s the best way to understand the peculiar phenomenon of individuals who choose t

What do Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson have in common? In general, the answer is not much. But when it comes to the election of an antisemite to a Michigan U.S. Senate seat, they are very much on the same page. The same appears to be true for a lot of people like Schumer, who are nominally Jewish but who prioritize the interests of the Democratic Party over their abhorrence of antisemitism, let alone support for the survival of the State of Israel.
